Okay it isn’t the most exciting thing to go out and do, watching your child bounce up and down, up and down, up and down (you get the point) is just plain boring. But it is well worth doing for many reasons.
Safety
This should always be top of the agenda and although most of you will have spent hours trying to put up the trampoline there is always the fencing that goes on the outside of it too. A lot of people, okay Dad’s will just settle with the trampoline as it is and say that they will get onto the fencing part of it at a later date. This rarely happens which is why it should always be put up as soon as you get the trampoline. Without this it is so easy to fall over and potenially seriously injure yourself.
I know that when I have seen people (including myself) use a trampoline they would certainly be falling off a lot without the fencing?
If you have a net then surely you do not have to stand out there and watch right? Wrong. Kids are always daring and do not realise the risks which is why they will try and do the best tricks even if they do not know how to. This is really just one of the reaons that you should not be sitting inside when your kids are out on the trampoline. If they want to do all of the flips and things then make sure they get shown how to do it the right way first.
It doesn’t matter what kind of trampolines you have, just make sure the kids are being careful on them.
You could always go after something else like wooden play equipment. Whatever option you take here make sure that you are outside with the kids. Make sure you dont just sit there and watch them, get stuck in and have a bit of fun!
